Collaborate for Change: A Vision for the Future

Under the theme "Collaborate for Change • Shape a Shared Future," this year’s summit, co-organized by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government and the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC), is expected to attract over 90 influential leaders from government and industry across Belt and Road countries.

Transforming Vision into Reality

Algernon Yau, Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, emphasized the transformative power of the B&RI: "We are turning an idea into action and a vision into reality. The HKSAR Government is committed to enhancing Hong Kong’s pivotal role in the B&RI, raising awareness, and helping sectors seize emerging opportunities."
